Thanks, when I saw "barrel cut off" I incorrectly assumed it was once a rifle.

It would have been much easier to just cut a barrel off. Stupid laws.

Reminds me a little of Cimarron's "Original" finish...looks like a time worn cowboy gun....

Gene, have to say that you really do deserve the Sir Henry title. Henrys are to you as Contenders are to me.

For those of you who are wondering what Sir Henry's antique treatment looks like, in person, I had the pleasure of seeing one of his rifles when he visited us, this winter. It looks great. It truly does. I think Henry would sell a ton of rifles if it could come up with a factory version of this antique finish.

I have a Cimarron six-shooter and it is kind of where I got the idea.

The old percussion revolvers look cool that way.

Thanks for the trip back down memory lane. I always love following your projects. The war mare’s leg was my favorite.
